Imran Khan has lost his sanity after losing power but the truth is that power never belonged to him, to begin with: Maryam Nawaz


ISLAMABAD, June 02 (SABAH): Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz Sharif on Thursday lambasted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan for talking about dividing the country into “three parts” and asked him who influenced him to talk about that.

“Whose ideology is it? Did Zac Goldsmith influence you to this ideology or Israel?” Maryam Nawaz asked while speaking to the media in Islamabad.

Reacting to Imran’s statement when he maintained that “Pakistan would break into three parts if the establishment does not take the right decision,” Maryam Nawaz said that the entire nation has taken notice of his words and is angered by them.

She said that “Imran Khan has lost his sanity after losing power but the truth is that power never belonged to him, to begin with,” she said. “Whoever said such a thing about the country, his own party will break into 300 pieces.”

She said that the mandate Imran Khan is grieving over was a false and snatched mandate. “I have never seen a person becoming restless for power to this extent,” she added.

The politician appealed to the government to “form a medical board comprising psychologists and mental health experts to examine Imran’s mental state.”

Maryam Nawaz went on to say that the PTI chairman failed within 30 days of assuming the office of prime minister and was further exposed within 30 days after being ousted. He asked under which right did Imran Khan talk about Pakistan’s atomic programme. “Does he have any role in making Pakistan an atomic power?” she asked.

Decrying her father Nawaz Sharif’s removal from the office of prime minister three times, Maryam Nawaz said that the PML-N supremo was ousted on the basis of an expired Iqama. “[Politicians] have borne exiles and life sentences for Pakistan. [Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto] and Benazir Bhutto were martyred but the voice of Pakistan Khappay [we want Pakistan] was heard,” she said.

The PML-N leader further said that Imran betrayed his workers during long march and left them alone while he was enjoying helicopter ride. Taking a dig at PTI Chairman, she said Imran’s entire politics is based on ‘spreading chaos and anarchy’.
